Food Defense & Site Security — critical areas, perimeter and accountability

Food defense asks who could reach the product, and whether you would know. Fogsphere detects access to critical areas, perimeter activity and abnormal handling, and logs each with the clip behind it.

Safety

Contractor and visitor presence, permit and escort compliance across the site.

Security

Critical-area access, perimeter intrusion, tamper indicators and camera integrity.

Operational Intelligence

Accountability trends, environmental sensing and sensor fusion across the plant.

How Fogsphere sees a plant perimeter and critical areas

A live security layer on top of the cameras already covering your fence line, gates and controlled doors.

Key use cases

What Fogsphere detects across critical areas, the fence line and everyone who moves through them.

Critical area protection

Everywhere a deliberate act would have to start

Production and ingredient areas

Unauthorised production-area entry and restricted ingredient-area access, checked against role and shift.

Chemical and water treatment

Chemical-storage access and water-treatment-area access, including out-of-plan entries and abnormal dwell.

Tank and silo access

Tank and silo access, hatch state and unauthorised presence on elevated access routes.

Product tamper indicators

Product tampering signals, unauthorised interaction with exposed product and abnormal handling near open lines.

Unattended objects

Unattended objects in production, packaging and dispatch areas, flagged with location and dwell.

FSMA food defense evidence

Supports FSMA Food Defense and Intentional Adulteration programmes for US customers, where applicable.

Perimeter and access

The fence line, the gate and every controlled door

Perimeter intrusion

Perimeter intrusion, fence crossing, loitering and suspicious behaviour along the boundary.

After-hours activity

After-hours activity across yard, dock and production, with route anomalies and out-of-hours presence.

Tailgating and doors held open

Tailgating at controlled doors and door-held-open events at hygiene and security boundaries.

Vehicles and tanker access

Unauthorised vehicles, vehicle dwell, loading-bay security and tanker access outside the planned window.

Camera tampering

Camera obstruction, view shift, lens covering and dead-zone detection, so gaps in coverage surface immediately.

Insider indicators

Repeated loitering near sensitive assets, route anomalies and access-log to video mismatches.

Contractors and visitors

Who is on site, where, and with whose escort

Presence and location

Contractor presence, visitor location, restricted-area access and after-hours presence during maintenance and sanitation windows.

Permit and escort compliance

Permit-area presence, escort requirements and contractor work-zone compliance, logged per permit.

PPE and hygiene compliance

PPE and hygiene compliance for contractors and visitors, checked to the same standard as your own staff.

Accountability and trends

Evacuation accountability and contractor safety trends, aggregated by company rather than by individual.

Pest and environment

Conditions that invite a food-safety problem

Pest and housekeeping

Rodent activity, bird presence, insect activity with specialised imaging, open doors creating pest exposure, waste accumulation, standing water and drain condition.

Environmental sensing

Temperature, humidity, air quality, CO₂, refrigerant sensors, ammonia detection and water leakage from LoRaWAN devices.

Sensor fusion

Cameras alone will not cover all of these — the AIoT sensor-fusion layer is what makes the picture complete.

Applications you’ll use

Application clusters behind this focus area

Housekeeping & Hygiene

Spills, wet floors, standing water, drain condition, waste accumulation and blocked egress by area.

PPE & Personal Compliance

Hairnets, beard nets, gloves, masks, aprons, sleeve protection and footwear, checked per hygiene zone.

Environmental & Sustainability

Spills, leaks, standing water, excessive washdown and cold-chain excursions, logged with context.

Vehicle & Traffic Movement

Forklift speed, wrong-way movement, blocked aisles and forklift-pedestrian proximity in the warehouse.
